Imagine going for a drive on a beautiful sunny day and never having to fill up your gas tank. Does it sound like wishful thinking? With the latest technology in solar industry, it might be closer to reality than you think.

A vehicle running entirely on solar cells is not a new idea. The first solar vehicles were made in the 1950s. Since then, solar technology and solar powered vehicles have made remarkable progress, replacing the dirty fossil fuels, especially in the last few decades. Today you will find every form of vehicle that you could imagine under the sun, being run with solar power. There are solar cars, buses, trains, boats, and even helicopters and airplanes that run on nothing else but the energy from the sun.
